Mauricio Pochettino cracks joke in English interview and says Tottenham can win Premier League title – not the same thing

Mauricio Pochettino’s English is coming along so well he managed to crack a joke in an interview, while also saying Tottenham can aim for the Premier League title – and no, surprisingly these weren’t the same thing.

The Spurs boss has finally elected to ditch his translator and answer interview questions in English, and it turns out he’s a pretty funny guy.

Speaking to BBC Sport, the former Southampton manager has laid out his hopes for his new club for both this season and the future.

‘It is true that Tottenham is a big club,’ he said.

‘And why not arrive into the season and compete for the top four, and to one day win the league – why not.’
